Twilight Star Nikki Reed in TRESemmé Style Setters

TRESemmé, the No.1 styling brand in the US* is proud to announce its latest fashion infused endeavor - TRESemmé Style Setters. The original and multi-phase digital series featuring Twilight star Nikki Reed premieres on the dedicated TRESemmé YouTube channel (YouTube.com/TRESemme) this week. This fast-paced series takes consumers backstage at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week to reveal the latest hair trends and stylist secrets straight from the Fall 2012 Collections of cutting edge designers including Tracy Reese, Charlotte Ronson and Rebecca Minkoff.

The first nine episodes of TRESemmé Style Setters will take viewers on an exciting journey illustrating the palpable energy and anticipation behind the scenes at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. Nikki Reed will share her personal perspective on the creative process as well as her intimate conversations with TRESemmé stylist Jeanie Syfu, and the celebrated fashion designers.

In partnership with Alloy Digital, a leading creator and distributor of high quality digital content and sister division to the producer of Gossip Girl and Pretty Little Liars, and Mindshare Entertainment, the branded entertainment division of media services agency Mindshare, TRESemmé grants women an inside look at the preparation leading up to Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week and throughout the season. The eight month long program, delivering thirty-two original episodes, will follow the activity backstage at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2012 straight through to the Spring 2013 show with unique footage of the creative and collaborative process behind creating the looks that make it down the runway. Viewers also will get the chance to see how the runway looks are interpreted and infused into every day fashion and hair trends throughout the year when the series makes stops at select fashion and music events across the country. Accompanying TRESemmé Style Setters will be “how-to-videos” featuring TRESemmé stylists Tyler Laswell and John D., who will walk women through an easy step-by-step process to recreate the runway-inspired looks at home.

“We are incredibly excited to launch the first episodes with Nikki Reed,” said David Rubin, Brand Building Director, US Hair, Unilever “she’s a true style setter, who brings a fresh perspective on the action behind the runway with high energy and engaging coverage of the creative collaboration between our stylists and design partners.”
